Imagining the universities of the future. How can we re-envision the university? Too many examples of what passes for educational innovation today—MOOCs especially—focus on transactions, on questions of delivery. In Alternative Universities, David J. Staley argues that modern universities suffer from a poverty of imagination about how to reinvent themselves. Anyone seeking innovation in higher education today should concentrate instead, he says, on the kind of transformational experience universities enact. In this exercise in speculative design, Staley proposes ten models of innovation in higher education that expand our ideas of the structure and scope of the university, suggesting possibilities for what its future might look like. What if the university were designed around a curriculum of seven broad cognitive skills or as a series of global gap year experiences? What if, as a condition of matriculation, students had to major in three disparate subjects? What if the university placed the pursuit of play well above the acquisition and production of knowledge? By asking bold "What if?" questions, Staley assumes that the university is always in a state of becoming and that there is not one "idea of the university" to which all institutions must aspire. This book specifically addresses those engaged in university strategy—university presidents, faculty, policy experts, legislators, foundations, and entrepreneurs—those involved in what Simon Marginson calls "university making." Pairing a critique tempered to our current moment with an explanation of how change and disruption might contribute to a new "golden age" for higher education, Alternative Universities is an audacious and essential read.

This report charts the recent development of the non-university sector of higher education in some OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development) countries. It shows that during the 1980s this sector most often succeeded in enhancing its standing and recognition among students, employers, and the academic world alike. Its progress in the 1990s will depend on how it meets the challenge of greater competition from the universities on the one side, and the growing postsecondary "third" sector--market oriented and often private--on the other. The countries surveyed are: Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Part 1 of this volume reviews and discusses recent trends and developments in the non-university sector, its main current features and the reasons behind its success under prevailing socio-economic conditions. Part 2 gives a substantial summary of the findings and conclusions of the general report and draws their implications for policy. Contains a 45-item bibliography. (GLR)

Moving beyond critique, Alternative Solutions to Higher Education’s Challenges uses an appreciative approach to highlight what is working in colleges and universities and offers an examination of how institutions can improve practice. Drawing on examples and cases from real higher education institutions, this book offers a solution-focused framework that challenges the negative assumptions that have plagued higher education. Chapters explore how current narratives have perpetuated and maintained systematic flaws in our education system and have hindered reform. This invaluable resource breaks from the substantial literature that only highlights the many problems facing higher education today, and instead provides alternative strategies and essential recommendations for moving higher education institutions forward.

L'enseignement supérieur s'est développé très rapidement dans le monde. Il a été consacré à l'éducation "tertiaire" des jeunes de 18 à 25 ans et constitue une sorte de fin de l'éducation. Il serait souhaitable de développer maintenant une "éducation quaternaire" définie comme un "enseignement de l'âge adulte" c'est à dire une forme d'éducation récurrente, ouverte. Dans les pays en voie de développement, les priorités devraient être différentes, l'écart avec les pays industrialisés ne pouvant actuellement être comblé.
